Process Cycle
1. A new reference value is stored by the
control unit during the reference time that
follows every sludge discharge. During
this time the optimum separation result is
assured, as no water is present in the
separator bowl.
2. Once the reference value is stored,
conditioning water is added to the
separator bowl. The conditioning water
softens the sludge in order to accomplish a
good discharge.
3. When the preset time between sludge
discharges has elapsed, displacement
water is added to the separator bowl. The
displacement water eliminates the risk of
oil loss at the following sludge discharge.
Initially, water is continuously admitted.
4. After that, a number of short pulses add a
minor amount of water. The interface
between oil and water moves toward but
never into the disc stack. This means that
there is no risk of water contaminated oil
leaving the separator.
5. The sludge discharge is initiated after a
predetermined number of water pulses.
The actual number of pulses is calculated
by the control unit, and is adapted to
changing conditions.

Process Cycle
1. After the sludge discharge a new cycle
starts with the storing of a new reference
value.
2. Conditioning water is added to the
separator bowl to soften the sludge.

Alarm
If the amount of displacement water is
increased a number of times with no
transducer response, the A7-11 alarm is
activated.
This alarm indicates that the displacement
water supply is insufficient and must be
checked.
